§6 Google Analytics

(1) This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Inc. (”Google”). Google Analytics uses so-called "cookies", text files that are stored on your computer and which enable the analysis of your use of the website. The information generated by the cookies based on your use of the website is ordinarily transmitted to a Google server in the USA and stored there. However, if IP anonymisation is activated on this website, Google will in advance truncate your IP address within the Member States of the European Union or in other countries that are party to the Agreement on the European Economic Area. It is only in exceptional cases that the entire address will be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and truncated there. Google will use this information on behalf of the operator of this website for the purpose of evaluating your use of the website, compiling reports on website activity and providing the website operator with other services relating to website activity and Internet usage.

(2) The IP address transmitted by your browser within the context of Google Analytics will not be associated with any other data held by Google.

(3) You can prevent the storage of cookies on your computer by adjusting your browser software accordingly, however we must point out to you that on doing so all of the functions of this website may not be available to you in their full capacity. You can also prevent the collection of the data generated by the cookie and related to your use of the website (including your IP address) by Google, as well as the processing of these data by Google, by downloading and installing the browser plug-in available at this link: tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

(4) This website uses Google Analytics with the extension ”anonymizeIp()”. This means truncated IP addresses are processed further, a reference to persons can therefore be excluded. Insofar as the data collected about you correspond to a personal reference, this will be immediately excluded and the personal data deleted without delay.

(5) We use Google Analytics to analyse the use of our website and to enable us to improve it on a regular basis. We can improve our offer via the statistics obtained and design it to become more interesting for you, the user. In exceptional cases in which personal data are transmitted to the USA, Google is subject to the EU-US Privacy Shield, www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.

§7 Social media plug-ins

(1) We currently use the following social media plug-ins: Facebook, Xing, LinkedIn. Here, we use the so-called two-click solution. This means that, as a matter of principle, when you visit our website, no personal data is passed to the suppliers of these plug-ins in the first instance. You can recognise the provider of the plug-in from the initial letters or the logo on the box. We give you the option to communicate with the provider of the plug-in directly via the button. It is only if you click on the marked field, thus activating it, that the plug-in supplier is made aware that you have accessed the applicable subpage of our online offer. In addition, the data defined in §3 of this statement are transmitted. In the case of Facebook and Xing, the IP address is immediately anonymised after collection according to the information given by the respective provider in Germany. By activating the plug-in, personal data are automatically transmitted from you to the respective plug-in supplier and saved there, (at American suppliers' locations in the USA). Given that plug-in suppliers collect data mainly by the use of cookies, we recommend that you delete all cookies via the safety settings of your browser before you click on the grey box.

(2) We have neither influence on the data collected or the data processing operations, nor are we acquainted with the full extent of the data collection, the purposes of processing or the periods of retention. We also have no information concerning the selection of the collected data by the plug-in provider.

(3) The plug-in supplier stores these data collected about you as utilisation profiles and uses them for the purposes of advertising, market research and/or the demand-driven design of his website. Utilisation of this kind is mainly used (even for users who are not logged in) for the presentation of demand-driven advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the generation of these user profiles, although you have to contact the plug-in supplier in question in order to exercise it. Via the plug-ins, we offer you the possibility to interact with the social networks and with other users so that we can improve our offer and design it to become more interesting for you, the user. The legal basis for the use of the plug-ins is specified in article 6 section 1 clause 1 lit. f DS-GVO.

(4) The data transfer occurs regardless of whether you have an account with this plug-in supplier and are logged in there. If you are logged in at the plug-in supplier's site, your data that we have collected are linked directly to your account with the plug-in supplier. If you click on the activated button and, for example, link the page, the plug-in supplier stores this information in your account and openly discloses this to your contacts too. We recommend that you regularly log out after using a social network, in particular prior to activating the button, as this will prevent the formation of any link to your profile by the plug-in provider.

(5) Further information about the purpose and the extent of the data collection and its processing by the plug-in supplier can be found in this supplier's privacy policies published in the following. There you can also obtain additional information about your rights in this regard and the setting options for protecting your privacy.

(2) When you visit the website, Google is made aware that you have accessed the applicable subpage of our website. In addition, the data defined in §3 of this statement are transmitted. This occurs regardless of whether Google provides a user account though which you are logged in or whether no user account exists. If you are logged in with Google, your data are linked directly to your account. If you do not want your profile to be linked with Google, you must log out before the button is enabled. Google stores these data as utilisation profiles and uses them for purposes of advertising, market research and/or the need-based design of his website. Utilisation of this kind is mainly used (even for users who are not logged in) for the presentation of demand-driven advertising and to inform other users of the social network about your activities on our website. You have the right to object to the generation of these user profiles, although you must contact Google in order to exercise it.
